Stand up Paddle Boards in Rincon, Puerto Rico

A new fitness craze has caught on here in Rincon, Puerto Rico. Stand up Paddleboarding (SUP) is a fun way to get out there in the ocean if surfing may be a little too intense for you. A little bit more relaxing, yet a powerful work out for your entire body, focusing on balance and stability to move yourself into an adventure.

You can either choose to rent some boards and take them out to your nearest beach here in Rincon, just making sure it is a calm day! These things are quite wide and stable, but definitely a challenge on days with swell where only the ones who know what their doing should be out. Calm days on these are awesome though, a perfect way to check out the tropical fish swimming through the bright sea fans, as well as the  endangered coral of the Marine Preserve at Steps Beach.

There is also an option to take a tour down a river on the boards! An excellent option if you're ready to get out of the sun, the tour is in Quebradillas, where the plants take over the shore in a jungle like tangle. Large green iguanas hang in the trees to watch while birds, fish, and wildlife are sure to be spotted skirting about. Bring your water proof camera to catch excellent shots of colors your friends and family will be shocked to see on your trip back home!

Give it a shot! What a fun way to spend your first few days together as husband and wife : )
